    Nah mate, no training, not even allowed in a stadium

    Taking illegal substances to improve performance means you cheat and break rules in every game you play while you are doing it, both international and domestic. That's why it is such a heavy ban for that, and a full ban.

    This. Hard to argue he doesn't deserve it, but FIFA had to re-write there rule book and give an unprecedented ban, especially the domestic one, based on populist purposes as much as anything else. That said, FIFA can do that - like the FA it is a law onto itself, and the only way either can be challenged is through CAS, and Liverpool have been very scared and cowardly to do that in the past, even when statutes and procedures favoured them. In this case there is surely bugger-all for Liverpool to gain in sabre-rattling when FIFA know they won't do a fig. Should be interesting to see if Liverpool have redress against the Uruguayan FA though, even if they have to sell at cut price.

    Otherwise, it's a fair penalty but arrived at out of an on the hoof policy and procedures that sum up FIFA aptly. Be interesting to see what the appeal brings forth.

    I agree. It's not that his ban is too harsh, it's that those other offences are treated too leniently.

    Can't agree folks, for various reasons, a full ban is given for very valid reasons when it is doping. because the offence takes place in both international and domestic.

    Even if they up the ban for elbowing, they won't ban for it domestically.

    Also, they should not be making new rules when incidences occur, then how is that fair, to have a new punishment created for your crime.

    imagine you ran a red light and they said, we're gonna change it so you can get 4 years, if you knew it was 4 years would you have ran the red light in the first place.

    punishments are meant to be a deterrent after all. So they just change the punishment. Biting IS covered under the rules, violent conduct. Any suggestion it is not is bollocks..

    I actually make you right there. <yikes>

    I never thought he'd get a total football ban, as there was no precedent for it and it looked to be stretching the current rule book to administer one.

    I think given his previous it's probably the right result, but I also think your point about a known deterent is a fair one.......but then again if he was acting due to a compulsive disorder, then no level of deterrent would make any difference eh mate ;)

    With drugs you also don't know when or how long he was doing it before the test found it out.

    Maradona is a legend :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Even he appreciates Suarez' genius.

    I believe you are on the wrong board. This board (http://www.not606.com/forumdisplay.php/23-Manchester-United) is more suitable for opinions like that <whistle>

    EDIT: Either that or the mythical Everton board which I'm not sure actually exists.
